Israels Dan Hotels to come up in Bengaluru in July

Jerusalem, May 7 (PTI) Israels leading hotel chain, Dan Hotels, is set to venture into India by opening its property in Bengaluru in July, its first overseas facility outside the Middle East.

"If all goes well and regulatory requirements are met quickly, the hotel will be operational in July," a senior executive at Dan told PTI.

The 230-room luxury hotel is coming up close to Bengalurus high-tech park and will have easy access to it.

"We chose Bengaluru because it presents us with a good opportunity given that so many Israeli tech companies have a presence in the city," the official said, adding that the hotel chain would look to explore further opportunities in other Indian cities in the future.

The Dan Hotel in Bengaluru is being built with an investment of about USD 50 million and the project is being carried out through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Dan Hospitality India Private Ltd, business daily Globes reported earlier.
